I made new mudflaps for my bike.
Faux tan leather with a pvc membrane sewed on the back.
Fitting those snap fasteners to the mudguards was a nightmare as the supplied tool couldn't be used.

It's my Spa Wayfarer. Built in July 2019.
Did my first tour on it last August with my dad on the Way of the Roses. Love it to bits  :)
